    I have to do it using c#. Because there is no direct interaction to database here. NO I don't want to alias the column name and table name. I have the replace/ create a new sql select statement by replacing the column names and table names with the new one (According to the condition's that I described above). Suppose I write an sql select statement in a text box. After button click I want to do the above replacement of column name and table name in the same text box...

      so, use some of the methods in the string class; what is holding you up? :)

      Suppose I got emp as table but if I replace all the emp inthe sql by employee then empname is also converting to employeename which is becoming to wrong column name

        so you must replace words, not parts of words. That requires a parser, something that chops your text (SQL or other) into words based on whitespace and/or delimiters. :)

          You can think the sql as a string here. Just the format of the string is like an sql select statement. Because i m not sending the sql to the database before formatting as i mentioned. And I have to do the formatting using c#.

            so you must replace words, not parts of words. That requires a parser, something that chops your text (SQL or other) into words based on whitespace and/or delimiters. How can I replace the word if I can't find the words? Because see the following string: select empno,empname,deptname,sal from emp, dept where emp.did= dept.did see here empno,empname,deptname,sal is one word. Because there is no space here. Also there may be column alias.It will be more difficult if i use group by, order by, having clause. In that case it will be more difficult. Ok it is easy to find different column name and table name (Using a parser). But problem is how can I just replace the old table name to new table name and old column name to new column name. again the problem is: Suppose I got emp as table but if I replace all the emp by employee then empname is also converting to employeename which is becoming to wrong column name

              Then seperate it by comma not space :rolleyes: From all of you're posts it's clear you really have no clue what you are doing. I would suggest you turn this project over to someone who does.

                  I got some idea. But do you know any good parsers name where i can easily find out the column names, table names, join tables names columns in join condition, column in where clause, column in group by clause and having clause. Also I can Replace the tables and columns names accordingly using the parser.

                    :confused: I don't name the parsers I create; all it takes is some ten lines of code: scan the string for begin and end of identifier, then look it up in a replacement dictionary.
